The Meta company promised not to block any information about the Azov regiment and to unblock hundreds of accounts of Ukrainian military, bloggers and activists.

This was announced by the head of the Ministry of Statistics Mykhailo Fedorov.

He said that the Ministry of Digital team agreed on this with the company's president of global policy, Nick Clegg, and vice president of moderation policy, Monika Bickert

, during a meeting in Davos. 

"Facebook and Instagram have become powerful tools for conveying the truth about the war to the whole world. The Ministry of Digitization team constantly communicates with the Meta corporation regarding cooperation. They unblocked hundreds of accounts of Ukrainian military personnel, bloggers and activists. But the most pressing topic still remained the blocking of photos and videos about the Azov regiment." , - the minister wrote.

Fedorov thanked Meta for "an important decision to change the moderation policy regarding Ukraine", in particular regarding the "Azov" regiment.

"Thanks to this, millions of people in the world will know about the feat of the defenders of Mariupol, and Russian propaganda will lose its argument for accusing Ukrainian heroes," he noted.

As a reminder, the EU will prohibit Facebook and Instagram from collecting personal data of users for advertising.
